Open Data

Open data is data that anyone can access, use or share. Simple as that. When big companies or governments release non-personal data, it enables small businesses, citizens and medical researchers to develop resources which make crucial improvements to their communities.

For inspiration, you may also want to look at the fantastic EBM Data Lab, which is based at the Dept of Primary Health Care Sciences, University of Oxford, and also HealthMap, based in Children's Hospital Informatics Program at Harvard Medical School.
